Pair of Red Clogs

sarah — Tue, 01 Nov 2022 22:41:20 +0000

For Mako, a little Japanese girl, the new shoes were clogs painted with red lacquer that shone beautifully. This is the story of what happened after she cracked the new clogs playing the weather-telling game and so longed for a bright, shiny new pair to replace them that she almost did a dishonest thing.

The warmth and quiet understanding of the grandmother who, remembering her own temptations as a little girl, recalls this story for her granddaughter, makes A Pair of Red Clogs especially moving. Kazue Mizumura’s charming illustrations are as delicate and graceful as the story itself.

Henry the Explorer

sarah — Tue, 01 Nov 2022 22:32:31 +0000

45th Anniversary Edition.

“Don’t be late coming home,” said Henry’s mother.

“All right—if a bear doesn’t catch us,” said Henry.

Exploring is hard work. It makes one hungry. It can be a little alarming if one does seem to see a bear. And sometimes, although explorers do not get lost, they are not quite sure which way to go. All of which makes exploring what it is and makes Henry’s exploring worth reading about.

The Christmas Cookie Sprinkle Snitcher

sarah — Tue, 01 Nov 2022 22:20:48 +0000

All the sprinkles he snitches,
it’s his Christmas fun,
but without sprinkles
the baking cannot be done!

The villagers panic,
but says Little Nat,
“I’ll track down the
Snitcher wherever he’s at!”

Will Nat find the Snitcher?
Will the Snitcher relent?
Will the cookies be baked?
Will the Snitcher repent?

Will Nat lose the trail?
Will he fall through the ice?
If Nat finds the Snitcher,
will the Snitcher be nice?

These questions are answered
for all to enjoy!

Ronald Reagan

sarah — Tue, 01 Nov 2022 20:39:48 +0000

Covering the gamut of Reagan’s dramatic life, Ronald Reagan: Our 40th President is essential reading, as inspiring as its subject.

He was one of America’s true greats. As president, he changed the world, developing a successful strategy for defeating Communism, toppling the Soviet Union, and liberating Eastern Europe (while hardly firing a shot). And just as important, he restored an America that had found itself mired in a malaise of falling living standards, moral decay, and what seemed like inevitable decline.

Though he was our oldest president, Reagan acted as a tonic, rejuvenating America’s economy, restoring her confidence, and attracting a majority of young voters won over by his vision of making America once again a shining city on a hill.

AWiebe — Tue, 01 Nov 2022 20:37:21 +0000

In Before You Share Your Faith Matt Smethurst presents five ways you can become "evangelism ready". While many good books begin further downstream by teaching how to evangelize, this volume will help you be primed for when the moment arrives. Because if you aren't ready to share your faith . . . you probably won't.

Name Above All Names

AWiebe — Tue, 01 Nov 2022 19:24:09 +0000

In this thoughtful study and worshipful reflection, two influential pastors draw on decades of pastoral experience in order to guide us through the whole sweep of Scripture and examine seven key qualities of Jesus’s identity and ministry:

Jesus as the True Prophet
Jesus as the Great High Priest
Jesus as the Conquering King
Jesus as the Seed of the Woman
Jesus as the Son of Man
Jesus as the Suffering Servant
Jesus as the Lamb on the Throne

Name above All Names helps us to see and meditate on the incomparable character of Christ—a spiritual exercise that enables us to readily respond to the exhortations of Scripture, to focus our gaze upon the King of kings, and to better understand just how great Jesus really is.
